Zhu Jieden was speechless, specially, after a long time, these two guys went wrong, one was worried that Nanjing City would not be protected, and the protest was left in Xuzhou City to respond, ready to rush south at any time; As for Li Yan, needless to say, in the end, he is still a little bottomless about the situation, what have he forgotten, he obviously has no bottom in his heart, he hides himself, and turns a blind eye to Qin Mufeng, these two bastards!

However, what's the use of being angry, it can't solve any problems, Qin Mufeng is loyal, as for Li Yan, why don't you know that this has a great stake? But the two of them insisted on staying at risk.

"Okay, Brother Li Yan, don't plead now! Is there a? ”

Zhu Jie said in a sullen voice, "As long as I am sure that Qin Mufeng has established Yanzhou Mansion now, I will be more sure-footed, and immediately send a decree to Yanzhou Mansion, ordering Qin Mufeng to follow Song Jiaxing, no matter what, we must also ensure the safety of Henan's flank, otherwise once the Qing army crosses the canal from Shandong and outflanks Xu Yifan's back, it will be really troublesome!" ”

Zhu Jie is right, if the main force of the mighty army is in the north of Henan today, once the whole of Shandong falls into the hands of the Manchurian Eight Banners, the Manchurian Eight Banners will march westward at any time, cross the Grand Canal, and go straight to the hinterland of Henan. The front and back attacks are definitely enough for Xu Yifan to drink a pot, but there are two-thirds of the elite forces of the imperial court, and there is no room for the slightest mistake.

As Zhu Jie thought, how could the battle situation in Shandong become so bad, even without Qin Mufeng's help, Song Jiaxing would not have lost so badly, making people rush all the way to Yanzhou Mansion, the entire six mansions in Shandong, only Yanzhou Mansion is in the hands of the imperial court, once Yanzhou Mansion is also lost, then the whole Shandong will be finished, and even Jining, an important town of Caoyun, will change hands, this is not a joke.

It all started with the massacre of Tae'an in Azig.

Since a month and a half ago, Xu Yifan divided his troops, and Song Jiaxing led the two towns of the Tianwei Army, sitting in Puyang Prefecture, protecting the safety of the southern part of Liaocheng Mansion in Shandong Province, protecting the Tianwei Army and the right wing of Kaifeng Mansion.

He Luohui led a Manchurian elite cavalry to plunder everywhere, constantly sneaking into Liaocheng and Caozhou's prefectures and counties, making the surrounding chickens and dogs restless, Yuan Zongdi and Liu Fangliang led thousands of troops, they could only keep Caozhou Mansion to the death, and they didn't dare to step out of Caozhou in half a step, there was no way, they were really scared last time, and the crazy Manchurian Eight Banners were not at all something that these thousands of people in their hands could resist, not more, even if it was only three thousand fine cavalry, it was enough to defeat these forces of their own!

There was no way, Song Jiaxing had to lead the main force of the two towns of the Tianwei Army, crossed the canal from Puyang Prefecture to the south, and came to the south of Liaocheng Mansion, trying to fight a decisive battle with He Luohui, first defeat He Luohui, and then say, if He Luohui has been allowed to run rampant like this, then Shandong will be unlucky.

Song Jiaxing entered Shandong with 30,000 cavalry, the first battle and He Luohui's Manchurian elite cavalry encounter, the two sides fought for a while, He Luohui could not resist, had to retreat to Liaocheng Mansion, Song Jiaxing put his troops in the southernmost part of Caozhou, and the zigzag shape was opened, and Liaocheng Mansion He Luohui, Wu Sangui formed a confrontation, He Luohui and Wu Sangui dispatched troops three times, and Song Jiaxing clashed, did not take any advantage, of course, Song Jiaxing wanted to defeat the Manchurian Eight Banners and Guanning Iron Cavalry, it was not so easy, after all, Song Jiaxing only has 30,000 troops, but the Qing army on the opposite side has 50,000 people, how easy is it to defeat the opponent?

However, even if Song Jiaxing's troops do not have an advantage, he can still stabilize his position if he fights steadily and with the help of firearms.

At this critical time, the battle situation suddenly changed, and the variable was because of the appearance of Azig, Azig entered Shandong from Dezhou all the way eastward, took Dengzhou Mansion and Laizhou Mansion, and then divided the troops into two routes, a partial division led by Nikan, went straight to Qingzhou Mansion, and he led the main force from Laizhou to attack in the direction of Tai'an.

These days, Azig has heard a lot about the war ahead, from Duoduo to Aobai, from Wu Sangui to Zierharang, the Qing Dynasty has been defeated repeatedly, if it weren't for the strong army, I'm afraid it would have been unable to support it, why? The Manchurian elite rider who dominated the world back then is now, why can't it? The generals are still the generals of the year, the elite soldiers are still the elite soldiers of the year, and almost no few have been replaced, but the result is jaw-dropping, what is the fame among them?

Azig is not Duoduo, although not as majestic as Dolgon, majestic and majestic, but also battle-tested, strategy deep, from the two sides to the present, every defeat of the Qing army, either ambushed, or encountered a strong attack on the city, repeatedly and the Ming army head-on, but the original Manchurian elite cavalry fast excitement, tactical changeable advantage to throw aside, but, the frontal position attack, the Ming army has a large number of sophisticated firearms, the combat power is so strong, it is really appalling, Compared with the Guanning Iron Cavalry back then, how could the Qing army not suffer a big loss?

Since Azig saw the respective advantages of the two sides and mastered their respective realities, his heart was naturally much more stable, and it was difficult to gain the upper hand in frontal positional warfare, and it was even more difficult to directly attack the state capital, so what should I do? There is only one way to lure the enemy to attack and annihilate the Ming army in the movement, you must know that the Manchurian elite cavalry has always been known for its erratic and rapid excitement, you only need to let the Ming army move, lead the Ming army by the nose, the Ming army will be defeated, no matter how powerful their muskets are, they have not yet aimed, the cavalry has changed direction, as long as it does not meet the musketeers head-on, the cavalry will not encounter a frontal blow.

The best tactic is a quick assault, interspersed with detours, after all, musketeers are not cavalry, can they still be faster than our elite cavalry?

When the Azig plan was decided, the army also came to Tai'an, and now Tai'an Prefecture does not have much defense at all, and it took Tai'an Prefecture in one fell swoop, and Azig directly ordered that the city be slaughtered for three days, and the army opened up to burn, kill and loot, and there was only one request, that is, Tai'an Prefecture would become a purgatory!

In three days, more than 100,000 people in the entire Tai'an Prefecture were almost slaughtered, even the old and weak women and children were not spared, and even the arrogant Azig openly stripped off all the clothes of hundreds of women, tied them up outside the city, and let others bully them, which was really tragic to the extreme!
